    Ouch but no ouch

    Sad day for me........but I am impressed more than ever with the safety engineering in my S. Ironically, was en route to the SC in freeway traffic when someone in a 1991 truck rear-ended me. I suspect he was going about 55 mph and I had slowed to a crawl. The good and the bad: My rear bumper...

    Arizona, the good and the bad

    For those of us in the Southwest, the summer heat is here. I've noticed the vehicle is a bit noisy when I first get in and drive off and presume it is the battery cooling system doing its thing. So far, ,it has been as high as 117 Fahrenheit, based on the thermometer reading on my dash panel...

    If not a Tesla, then what would you get?

    My wife is thinking about an EV. She wants something small for short trips around town. We are going to test drive anything and everything we can think of but frankly, don't want to get a second Tesla (only for budget reasons). Just throwing this out to see what others feel they might do. I...

    My first flat........

    Awoke to first flat (not even 5000 miles on the car). Used the new Roadside Assist contact on the 10.4 release. First, they could not find me in their database. Once we established the vehicle and my status, they had trouble “finding” me on the map (I am in a major metrpolitan area) which...

    Side mirror tilt in MS

    as far as I can tell, the only option is to have both mirrors tilt down when shifting into reverse or to not have the mirrors tilt in reverse. Anyone know of a way to only have the passenger side mirror tilt while the driver’s sude mirror stays in its original orientation? If not, I’d welcome...

    3rd Phoenix Supercharger Coming?

    I know they have started to build at the Arizona Biltmore location and the location in NW Phoenix at the 101 and I-17 should be opening any day, but on Tesla.com, there is a third location "coming soon." The marker (which I realize is not necessarily geographically accurate) is someplace near...

    Autopark - Not what I expected?

    Almost 2 months with my new S 100D (with AP2) and it is amazing. But as I explore features, I am discovering some pitfalls. Just used Autopark for a parallel parking experience and the car finished about 18 inches from what I thought was a well-delineated curb along the left side. I needed to...
